Job description

We in the Project Management business area are community builders who love to run projects. We lead all actors in construction projects towards common goals based on proven methods and with all of AFRY's expertise behind us.

Now we are looking for an experienced project manager/project manager to join our team in southern Sweden, with a special focus on strengthening and developing our business in the Jönköping region. Here you will have a central role in driving projects forward, developing customer relationships and contributing to local growth work.

In the role, you are responsible for leading projects in construction, mainly in areas such as commercial properties and community building. You will work through the entire project process - from early stages, calculations and procurement to implementation, handover and follow-up. You will also have the opportunity to work on assignments linked to our recurring customer relationships, including within defense / security-classified facilities, municipalities and regions.

Depending on your skills, the role may also include assignments as a construction inspector, BAS-P / BAS-U or control manager.

The work is varied with parallel projects of different sizes and complexity. You will work both in the office, at the customer's site and in a project environment. You will be supported by experienced colleagues in the region and a leadership characterized by freedom under responsibility.

This is an opportunity for you who want to be an important part of our continued expansion in the region and contribute to creating value for both customers and society.

Requirements:

  • A minimum of 5 years of experience in construction project management or design management
  • Documented experience of running medium-large scale projects

  • Good understanding of contract forms (AB/ABT)
  • Ability to manage multiple projects in parallel
  • Relevant education: Civil Engineer, YH/KY Construction or equivalent

Additional:

  • Experience from projects within e.e.g. hospitals, defense properties or municipal activities
  • Established contact network in the region
  • Competence in BAS-P / BAS-U
  • Certification as an inspector (RISE / SBR)
  • Inspection manager according to PBL (level K)

As a person you are:

  • Self-motivated and responsible - you drive projects and create structure in complex environments
  • Relationship building - you build long-term customer relationships and thrive in a sales role
  • Collaborative - you work effectively with clients, colleagues and contractors
  • Problem solving and analytical - you understand technical issues and find practical solutions
